Labeling: In or Out?
Like any other business decision, the choice to in-source or out-source your labeling requirements comes down to the return on investment (ROI). Does your current contract and potential future contracts justify the investment in resources (personnel and equipment) that are required to be UID compliant? UID Specialists can walk you through the numbers behind an internal implementation and help you determine what pieces (short or long term) make sense to out-source.
Labeling Options
MIL-STD-130 specifies that UID labels should be able to remain 'permanent and legible' for the duration of the hardware's lifespan. UID Specialists can identify the most cost effective solution that meets or exceeds the UID requirement. UID Specialists will provide these labels directly to your manufacturing site(s) or we can assist you in the purchase and configuration of the necessary labeling equipment.
